Branch & Barrel Brand Mark

Ken Garcia of Ellen Bruss Design commissioned Steven Noble to render the new brand identity for Branch & Barrel, a Colorado craft brewing company owned by Broken Arrow Spirits that has created small-batch hand-crafted quality whiskey for the last 7 years. The challenge was to tie the visual identity to the brand name by fusing/morphing a tree with a whiskey barrel. The result was a very successful launch of the new brand mark.
